DMLT Scope

The challenges faced by DMLT freshers are as follows:

• Low starting salary: Many freshers experience starting with a low salary (especially in smaller labs or clinics), which can be demotivating, regardless of the practical skills they develop. 

• Limited job awareness: Freshers often have little to no clarity regarding their career path, job roles, and growth opportunities, which can hinder their ability to make the right choice. 

• Hands-on confidence: Some students wonder if they are ready for "real-time" lab work when undervalued because of their limited practical experience in their studies. 

• High competition: Jobs for lab technicians are on the rise but the number of DMLT graduates is rising at the same rate, which makes securing jobs with some student scientists even more difficult without a personal network or experience.

Pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Technology (B.Sc. MLT) might improve your skills and lead to improved employment options after earning a DMLT (Diploma in Medical Laboratory Technology). Choosing a college is influenced by several criteria, including reputation, faculty, facilities, and placement chances. For students who have completed DMLT, many colleges in India offer B.Sc. MLT as a continuing study. The following are some of the best universities to think about getting a B.Sc. MLT after DMLT:

• All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS), New Delhi
• King Institute of Preventive Medicine and Research, Chennai
• Manipal University, Manipal
• Sri Ramachandra University, Chennai
• Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Banaras
• Jamia Millia Islamia University, New Delhi
